La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[harapan]

With Sevilla so desperate for every available point to take them up and far from the relegation zone I have a feeling Sevilla will win the game. This will be an interesting game to watch and with the break coming to an end I expect to see a different Sevilla that has taken time to restructure, and are coming back strong to reclaim their position at the top half of the league table.
[/quotes]

Seville performance have improved since they got a new manager. I believe they'll fight to leave the relegation zone but I don't see them getting a spot for European competition. Then again, it's football and anything can happen. It'll be beautiful to see how they fight their way to the top half of the table.
I also believe they'll win their next game.

[Furious 7]

I don't know if Rodrygo ever played as a center forward. But he seems more suitable as the right winger in Real Madrid. He is a quick player, he can deliver good assists, and he has accuracy in shooting. With his ability and his height (1,74 m), the ideal position for him is a winger (not a center forward). In my opinion, he must improve his physical strength and his height if he wants to be a center forward. If Real Madrid has no money, they can use the alternative to make Rodrygo be a CF. But if Real Madrid has a money to buy top striker, it is better to buy a new striker (Mbappe should be the ideal CF).

When Benzema was not actually there, if you look at Madrid's matches in the previous season, he was often projected there even though there were indeed some changes made, such as when Asensio and Hazard were also tried there but of course more often on Rodrygo.
Speaking of strengths he is still very young and can still be honed and of course this could be very good if he can do that.
But I agree with what you said, he is a runner type of player and indeed Madrid suits his style on both wings Vini and Rodrygo can be a reference although I also like to see Valverde in that position but it doesn't really matter because Valverde is also very good in midfield.

In terms of strikers I would probably exclude Mbappe here because I still don't think he will be at Madrid after what he did last season.

[baeva]

No one to replace him in the French team? Or in Real Madrid after all? Perhaps you meant to say the second, but that too is a moot point. Rumours are rife that Real Madrid want Mbappe and are prepared to pay up to a billion euros for the player and then Benzema will have competition. Although I would not call it that, because Karim is already thinking about the end of his career (based on media reports) and Mbappe will just be his successor

From what I hear, Madrid has prepared another target as an alternative if they fail to sign Mbappe, he is Endrick, a talented young player
Madrid will not make Mbappe a priority because Endrick is predicted to be able to compete and become a new star
Regardless of whether this young player can be relied upon, we'll see in the continuation of the competition.

Hm, well, I think the deal with Mbappe will still happen, because even PSG does not expect the player to stay with them for another season, so most likely Real Madrid will not even have to stress about it. If you look at it adequately, PSG have a priority to sign Messi for one more season, but not Mbappe, because the club's management finally understands that they cannot keep all the players

[izsara]

I am sure that I will never see a pair of Mbappe + Haaland in the same team. Haaland had already turned down a move to Real Madrid because he thought Mbappe's move there was settled. These two players are direct competitors and they will avoid such a situation at all costs when there will be competition between them also within the same team.

Agree with what you say because indeed in this case they are also often compared to the same as the two goats now and in fact there are still many who feel that with their current abilities it is not impossible that they will become real rivals to replace the current two goats so it is difficult to unite the two .
Regardless of whether this makes sense even if there were clubs trying to get together I think one of them would definitely Turned oot that.

isco and sevilla again split by mutual consent. I was surprised to hear this news because Sevilla is having bad luck this season plus it has terminated the cooperation contract with Isco. some rumors circulating in the media it seems that isco has an unfavorable relationship with the club owner so sevilla terminated the contract with isco. Isco when he was in Madrid performed quite well but slowly his name began to sink with his performance. isco is now a free agent, there has been no update as to which team will make a bid for him. on the sevilla side maybe they will return to clean up for this season's transfer window.

One of the promising and brilliant player I saw had a future at Real Madrid. Unfortunately, things did work for him as he started being a regular bench warmer. When he moved to Seville, I was happy for him because i thought he would reignite his magic there. I hope one of the top European teams picks him up.

A pair of them will be practically impossible I think also. They’re just two good talented players that will want themselves to stand out to the world independently. I feel if they play together, one will definitely outshine the other, which will not be acceptable to them. After Messi and Ronaldo period in the history of football, I believe a new era of football has begun. Let's see who steps up to fight for the title of greatest of all time (GOAT) right now.

[lalabotax]

Benzema is a really good player. It was actually surprising to see that he was able to do what he did at this age. No one actually thought he is going to order from like this in my opinion. He was able to perform like he was in his prime at 34. He would like to continue performing like that, but the problem is, he is facing some injuries. He is also not being able to play as well as he did the last season.

Benzema has decided to retire from the French national team after the Qatar World Cup for various reasonable reasons.
But what is certain, for now, he will only focus on Real Madrid. And he has also decided that he will retire at Real Madrid someday and will not move to other clubs, so it's possible that after his career is over, he won't be playing football for the club anymore. He said that if he was sure that Real Madrid would be his last club until he retired and enjoyed old age. We can't deny that injuries really influence his performance. After he becomes the best player in the last season, I thought that he will be again this season. But the injury that he is facing really give a bad impact on his health and performance.  After that, I don't know whether he will continue to be involved in the world of football or not, is it possible that he is capable and suitable to be a coach in a club?

Yes he had such a bright future he is a really talented player i doubt top teams will be interested in him but i think the best move for him now is to go to a medium team regain his former performance and then move to a better team i think the premiere league would suit his play style and there are a lot of good teams in england to choose from.

Having both goats on the same team is definitely incredible combination but then how possible is that to happen as both world best players fees are very high and will be difficult for the club to afford both players, and I suggest the get one-star player then use the remaining money to buy other you players that the club can build up.

Why shouldn't it be a.  good coach?  More or less all coaches first had a football career and then continued to coach.  I still think he has a good vision of the game, and that coaching a team isn't a problem, especially if it's a lower category team or a championship that isn't particularly difficult.

That'll just be some kinda dispute and struggle for game and carrier achievements...... y'all remember a time when  Mo.Salah won't give pass the ball to Mane, no matter how close the range is?? That could as well be the same case here.
The one thing I love 'bout mbappe is his speed and agility. He has this swift ability to push the ball ahead of any careless defender ( and many more times, he wins in the contest), despite the fact that he's behind, he'll still make a run ahead of the defender and make a shot or a nice cross. Mbappe has shocked me severally to my veins -- and I just see him as a better option -- that's prolly how he sees himself too, according to an interview immediately after the world cup finals.

Next week La Liga will come back, with no too exciting matches in general. Maybe the only exception are the ones between Athletic de Bilbao and Betis, or Real Sociedad and Osasuna, because of their place right now in the classification.

After the World Cup, I guess that we are badly used to great games.

in my opinion we will have many very interesting games, real madrid will play against real valladolid that is in position 12 and comes into this game with 3 wins and 2 losses and in its last game it lost against Ath. Bilbao, but that doesn't mean that real valladolid won't be able to cause problems for real madrid because they will be playing at home and we all know that real madrid when not playing with benzema has had difficulties in winning games, I saw that benzema was participating of training but I don't know if he will play in that game, in case he plays then real madrid will win the game without having too many difficulties

another interesting game will be barcelona's game against Espanyol that comes into this game with 3 draws and 2 defeats, normally barcelona would not have much difficulty in winning this game but it seems to me that Lewandowski will not be able to play in this game because the resource that barcelona post no of the Administrative Court of Sport was refused, that means that Lewandowski will stay 3 games without playing, he will fail in the game against atlético madrid and against getafe, with Lewandowski absent in the game against Espanyol so barcelona will have hard to win this game

[TopT3ns]

Mbappe played very well in the World Cup, but I do not understand why there is so much hype about him. Yes, he is a great striker even before the World Cup, but his results in the finals were only due to two penalties. The rest of the time he was no better than the rest of France's forwards. Of course he's better than many and worthy of playing for Real Madrid, but I think there's a lot of unnecessary expectations around him now.

In the World Cup match, Mbappe managed to bring his country to the final round, and of course it was a good achievement with his skills. Mbappe was seen by the Real Madrid coach, and Real Madrid had planned to buy Mbappe when the January transfer window opened. At least there is an opportunity to develop Mbappe's career at Real Madrid.

[EdenHazard]

I am sure that I will never see a pair of Mbappe + Haaland in the same team. Haaland had already turned down a move to Real Madrid because he thought Mbappe's move there was settled.

Noone can really near the two goat messi & ronaldo especially in the near generation nor in haaland / mbappe era , both will be on a different level as yeah it's like pele and maradona greatness would be there still while the new goat keep coming born , that's how we appreciate the great right?

La liga might won't have such players for the heating elclassico unfortunately.

[Velvet78]

I also don't find it realistic to have Mbappe and Haaland both at the same time for Real Madrid. It is valid for any other team as well. However I think one of these superstars will be seen playing for Real Madrid in the future. And that player can really be Mbappe. Because they were already close to a deal last summer.

Let's say things didn't go Real Madrid's way about signing Mbappe again then their target would surely be Haaland. He might seem eager to play for another top team after having 2 or 3 years with Manchester City.

[Rockstarguy]

France went to the final and got a great opportunity to win the World Cup. They repeatedly came close to winning the World Cup by conceding goals. But in the end, Argentina suffered a heavy defeat through a penalty shootout. It is doubtful whether their team will have this kind of performance in the next World Cup.

It is not certain that he will be able to return to the final again (France)
It's not easy to know who in four years will be strong enough to beat the competition

in any case we are off topic, here we are talking about the league sorry for telling you

Getting to the world cup final is not easy,  if it works for a team to reach the finals this world cup it might not be possible for the same team to get to finals in the next world cup.  Mbappe was the main reason why France are able to reach the finals,  he scored most of the goals for France.  If he can still play this way in the next world cup,  France have chance of getting to the finals in next world.

[flipme]

Let's say things didn't go Real Madrid's way about signing Mbappe again then their target would surely be Haaland. He might seem eager to play for another top team after having 2 or 3 years with Manchester City.

Haaland's father has a similar explanation to this:

Haaland would also like to try his luck in Serie A, La Liga or Ligue 1: "In Germany he already spent two and a half years and he could do it again in the future. He could spend three years in the Premier League and then go to Italy, Spain or France. Nothing is decided, but it is a possibility. He is capable of being a winner in any team."

https://www.besoccer.com/new/haaland-s-father-he-could-play-in-italy-spain-or-france-1211184

The English Premier League is considered by many respected authorities as the best league. I think it would be a little strange for Haaland to leave Manchester City and go to other leagues. I definitely believe he will be successful in the Spanish League, but I don't think he will go to Spain when all the spotlight is on him in England. Therefore, Mbappe will be the best option for Real Madrid, and if Real Madrid manages to sign Mbappe, they will have the opportunity to dominate the Spanish League for at least another five years without interruption. I think Real Madrid's first choice should be Mbappe.

Rumours are rife that Real Madrid want Mbappe and are prepared to pay up to a billion euros for the player and then Benzema will have competition. Although I would not call it that, because Karim is already thinking about the end of his career (based on media reports) and Mbappe will just be his successor

When Mbappe is targeted by Real Madrid, it is a good opportunity for career development because Real Madrid is a big club that has a lot of money and a team that can work well together. What needs to be considered is that Mbappe must be able to interact well and not be a person who stubborn or difficult to manage.

If Real Madrid have player like Mbappe and Karim Benzema in this season, it will really help the team to perform better because we saw what Mbappe displayed in the FIFA world cup competition that just concluded few days ago, despite Argentina won the title. Mbappe has what Real Madrid want but to release the money to get Play like Mbappe is very hard but I know Real Madrid are capable to afford any amount of money just to get him. And, I believe Mbappe will never make real Madrid to regret for such decision in future.

Mbappe played very well in the World Cup, but I do not understand why there is so much hype about him. Yes, he is a great striker even before the World Cup, but his results in the finals were only due to two penalties. The rest of the time he was no better than the rest of France's forwards. Of course he's better than many and worthy of playing for Real Madrid, but I think there's a lot of unnecessary expectations around him now.

scoring in a world cup final is not easy, yet he scored 3, and he got the 2nd penalty for his team in extra time, and he scored the equalizer in the last minutes of the match too, what did a player like harry kane do with a penalty ? he sent it to the crowds and couldn't handle the pressure, unlike Mbappe, and overall he is the goalscorer of the world cup, you can't take that away from him, he scored 12 goals in just two world cups, and he still has time to play two more to score even more and break more records, Real Madrid will be so lucky to have a player like him to play for the team.

[martyns]

But it doesn't look like it's going to happen because regardless of the circumstances the two players Haaland and Mbappe are very difficult to put together, although it is possible it takes money and a lot of effort and I'm not sure about that.

Bringing imppape and Haaland are two work players that require a lot of money to get them signed to one club even though the clubs may have such funds will their concentrate all the funds on getting just a few players or spending the money to get other young players that are less expensive.

Haaland and Kylan mbappe are two different amazingly Young players who just begin to make names and fame in the history of football. Haaland will find it difficult to drive in the same boat as Kylian mbappe who shares closely the same football experience and ambition. Mbappe may likely not stay in the same team as Haaland because both individuals will be playing selfishly with the feeling that one will outshine the other. Therefore, bringing Mbappe and Haaland to the same club not only depends on the club's management but also depends on the two individuals' decision

The both are two amazing kids who are doing very well at the moment,and I don't think I will have any reason to compare them because they both have two different characteristics,both in scoring and in team contribution.Mbape showed to the world what he is made of,and even as I respect Haaland for his sharpness in attack,I still doff my cap for Mbape for how he can single handedly give a team win,and that is only where the different is.
Mbape can dribble very well,and gives constant threat to his opponents,while Haaland is only very good at scoring.
Well, bringing the two together to play will be very massive because that team will have no attack problems at all.

Mbappe was seen by the Real Madrid coach, and Real Madrid had planned to buy Mbappe when the January transfer window opened. At least there is an opportunity to develop Mbappe's career at Real Madrid.

Even though he is still young, Mbappe has really shown a very good game. especially in speed and control of the ball as well as the accuracy of his incredible kicks. I was very impressed with Mbappe's performance at the World Cup. And because he is still 24 years old, his potential can still continue to increase. and Real Madrid have been looking for young players with great potential since last season. and I think Mbappe is the best choice.
